"After a long absence, our Japanese soulbrother is finally back for spring-cleaning the technoworld with a hearty loading of warm water. And again it´s not easy to say what exactly Kaito is doing. A little try of explanation: 'Sometimes a single person has to do something forbidden to exceed a border, to change something.' Kaito changed a lot with his records. He exceeded a border. Astonished the popes of taste. Got discussions going. He broke embankments and found new friends. He recharged the perception of 'Trance' positively, familiarized it with Minimal and Deephouse. With prominent support of integer people like Larry Heard, Francois Kevorkian or Joe Clausell he reestablished Trance in a fair and gentle way. Again it got totally self-evident. Recently in the club: 'Hey Trance, you also here? -- Great!', 'Yes you´re right. By the way, I name myself NeoTrance now.', 'Really? Sounds chic!', 'Exactly. Also a Sake on the rocks for you?', 'Of course, with lemon. Thanks, cheers!', 'Cheers!', 'Hey Neotrance, ...?', 'Yes?', 'What´s so bad about taking warm showers?'"
